Never Too Old

One good thing about the top teams missing a tournament now and again to participate in international competition is that we get to see some new faces in the top spots. This past weekend while Kessy and Ross were winning the World Championships, the AVP tour crowned a new champion in Coney Island.

Carrie Dodd, 35, and Dianne DeNecochea, 41, defeated Jennifer Fopma and Brittany Hochevar to become the oldest pair, men or women, to win an AVP title with a combined age of 76 years, nine months and three days.

OK, so it is not the record you dream of breaking as a child, but it is still a record and an amazing feat. Dianne and Carrie took out their younger competitors for their first win as a pair and proved that you can keep improving no matter what your age. Congratulations, ladies. You've still got it!
